Free Online Signature Generator
Our free signature generator lets you create a signature image. Choose from 30 handwriting fonts or draw with a mouse, trackpad, touch or pen. Download a transparent PNG to insert where an image is accepted; this tool does not authenticate a signer or create a cryptographic signature.
Digital signatures rely on cryptographic signing to prove who signed and that the document was not changed, which a PNG image alone cannot do. This editor creates a handwritten-look image for correspondence or documents that accept images.
Your name and drawn strokes are never uploaded or stored. Customize the font, size, color, rotation and underline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the signature on legal documents?
The output is an image, without identity verification, certificates, cryptographic signing or an audit trail. Whether a document accepts a signature image depends on its requirements; this tool does not determine legal validity.
Does the download have a transparent background?
For typed signatures with the default transparent background setting, yes. The downloaded PNG preserves the transparent background so you can overlay it on any document.
Can I draw on mobile devices?
Yes, the drawing canvas is fully touch-optimized. Use your finger to draw on phones and tablets with smooth, responsive strokes.
Tips & Best Practices
- Try multiple fonts: Browse through all 30 font options to find the one that best represents your personal style.
- Use a larger font size: Bigger signatures look more professional on documents and scale down better when resized.
- Add subtle rotation: A slight 2-5 degree tilt makes typed signatures look more natural and hand-signed.
- Draw with a stylus: For the most authentic look in draw mode, use a stylus or Apple Pencil on a tablet.
- Keep it consistent: Use the same signature style across all your professional documents for brand recognition.
- Save your favorite: Download multiple variations so you have options for different contexts and document types.
